According to Kim at doctorsax.biz, "Special" doesn't necessarily indicate anything abut the keywork, etc, and usually only indicates something about the engraving or lacquer.
The Vito "Special" alto I own is on Kim's website, s/n B1032; it has the F# key on the right side.
S/N only a little outside the range you indicate. As far as I know, the "Special" part of it is the lacquer, which has a name but I can't remember it right now.
It's like a frost gold
